It cost £500 and it's irreversible, as they basically bond a sheet of carbon weave to the pieces and then clear coat over the top which makes the parts a little thicker than before.

Also, I had to send all of the bits away which meant buttons hanging off wires for 6 weeks (the guy had a big backlog of work) - not a good look! Though the wait was worth it.

Looks slightly lighter wood than mine.

Steering wheel is now in, think alcantara is the way forward.

I think a brushed titanium could look good.

Thank you! Not sure about carbon wrap anymore. If I do anything, I think it’ll be either piano black or alcantara.

Looks nice, except the edges are peeling away so it's not been wrapped properly. Otherwise it'd be a nice finish.

Next Question... after skinning /covering with the fake carbon , how tight were the fits putting it back together? Looks great BTW

Thanks

Most bits were fine, it was only the centre console that was a bit of a pig to get back in.
